The IDF says troops killed a Palestinian hurling stones at Israeli motorists in the West Bank this evening.

Troops of the 636th Combat Intelligence Collection Unit had staged an ambush near the town of Turmus Ayya, when they identified three Palestinians hurling stones at cars on the nearby highway.

The soldiers opened fire, killing one of the suspects and wounding the other two, the military says.

The IDF publishes footage showing the stone throwing.
